About Us

Welcome to Chinchilla Planet. As fellow pet owners we know that it can be tough to find information about chinchillas since they're not as popular as more traditional pets such as dogs, cats, and birds. That's why we created this site. We hope we've covered 90% of the information you need to raise your chinchilla so that it lives for a very long time.

Just so you understand our perspective, we're not chinchilla breeders nor do we participate in shows. Our chinchillas are our pets. Nothing more. But over the years we think we've learned a lot about their proper care and upkeep. This site lets us share that information with you.

Please feel free to comment on any of the posts on this site. We welcome all comments and we'll do our best to answer any questions you pose. When we don't know the answer to something, we'll let you know. It's not our desire to trick you or to impress you. We just hope we can help.
